I'd second the Eureka Specialita. It has a ton of great stuff going for it. You can also get it in the grind by weight model, Libra

I have the exact same setup and am trying to learn here. What does "run out" mean and how is it measured? And how do you test the bottom burr alignment (and re-align it as well?) using tape?

actually I am very curious if the GS3 can use a 2000w heating element ? I know that the GS3 steam boiler can be heated up to 2 bars, was wondering what is the lowest pressure it stays if you purge the steam for approx 50 seconds ? I am always wondering if 1200w heating element

Sure, I really like our Speedster. You might like one too. Great steaming. Back to back shots? No problem - no matter how fast you are. Temperature stability? Saturated group & PID controller, one of the best. I would suggest the Idromatic version with some custom options to make it a virtual one of a kind

I have a DF64 II with red LS burrs (v3 I believe). This is 100% true on the comment that the marker test doesnt alway indicate alignment. I was getting a clean marker test when putting pressure on the grinder going past zero and getting terrible results. I decided to take one of my dial indicators and measure actual run

You should contact them. They may have some 98mm mizens for sale. I paid about $370 US dollars with shipping- back in October

I wonder how much it would be to use a metal 3D printing service

I heard back from Pat and sent him the Giemme controller. On another note, I will also need a new reservoir, and still trying to figure out how to remove the filter from it? Anybody has a source for it? The one I found at mpespresso costs 70 bucks and if want to include the tab for

In hindsight it may be the "sleeve" around the group that needs to be full of water, not the group itself. In the first video above he runs a lot of water through the group before releasing the lever. I am sure that DaveC will confirm at some stage

Up until the point you reach the middle of the cup, you are doing a great job. Here's a screen shot from one of your videos, and it truly looks great. The pattern is forming in nice wide open leaves. {image} But then moments later the flow becomes too thick and the pattern gets squashed.
